Buddhism also became popular in India as it meshed with the existing
religious traditions known as Jainism, and forms of Hinduism. Jainism
and Hinduism were well-established in India from early on. Buddhism
shared some notable principles with those ancient traditions, for
instance the insistence on non-violence, known as ahimsa, particularly important in Jainism, and the inter-related concepts of nirvana (literally meaning extinction) and moksha (liberation of the soul).
